Purpose
Setting
Methods
This was a prospective study of 20 eyes (10 patients) who underwent uncomplicated bilateral cataract surgery with implantation of an IOL with Controlled Spherical Aberration (RayOne EMV). Patients were targeted for moderate, micro-monovision with the dominant eye targeted for plano and the non-dominant eye with a -0.50 D offset. Postoperatively the binocular uncorrected visual acuities were measured for distance (UDVA) at 4 M and for intermediate (UIVA) at 66 cm.
Results
Mean age was 66 years (range 56 to 85). Mean preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) was -0.50 ± 1,00 D. All patients asked achieved spectacle independence for most of their daily activities. The post-op refraction ranged from 0.00 D to -0.50 D. Binocular UDVA was 0,1 log MAR in all cases. Binocular intermediate and near vision ranged from J5 to J4 in all cases. No patient referred any significant photopic phenomena post-surgery.
Conclusions
The results show that a micro-monovision approach, associated with an IOL using Controlled Spherical Aberrations (RayOne EMV IOL) provides cataract patients with an increased depth of field, high spectacle independence and very good quality of vision.
